Print Room

I thought I would show you some picture from the print room and the general processes I use to create my scarves! :) 

It is important to get the silk stretched out and stuck down before printing! :) My green masking tape is super sticky! 

Here I am placing the screen before printing to ensure I will be printing on the right area of the silk! Tricky to do sometimes if you can't see through your screen to the fabric! 

Print Room

First day of printing yesterday…5:30am start to get up and ready.  I had my acetates in a rather large tube, 114cm long to be precise.  I had my bag with my laptop and handbag contents and a smallish suit case with over night things and my print room bag.  Print room bag is the most important bag! Full of gum strip, masking tape, tipex, silk for testers, scissors and of course my notebook!  This is the travelling life of a printing.  It never stops and I do love it! Friends always ask where I will be and its always a mix.  Hard one to pin down I am!  

Here are some pictures from my day in the print room! :)
